An Efficient and Privacy-Preserving Outsourced Heavy Hitter Query Scheme with LDP Technique
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The rise of the Internet of Things (IoT) and Big Data technologies has led to the widespread use of crowdsourcing in data-oriented applications. However, privacy concerns remain a significant issue in crowdsourcing. In this paper, we propose an efficient and privacy-preserving outsourced heavy hitter query scheme in crowdsourcing scenarios. The proposed scheme is characterized by employing a communication efficient S-Hist Local Differential Privacy (LDP) protocol and Paillier homomorphic encryption to achieve top-k items query. Detailed security analysis shows it can achieve not only participant user’s privacy but also query result privacy. In addition, extensive performance evaluations are conducted, and the results demonstrate its efficiency, and show it can balance the query accuracy and privacy well.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
